          In the anonymity of the internet, I dare to say that I’m a former horsey piece seller who left because I couldn’t stand it anymore. You are right, no piece ever moved over another. It’s a myth perpetuated by the kind of person I was. But I can’t do it anymore. It a lie, it always was. Don’t believe anything of it.

          Also stop using the kn**** word. It’s offensive.

        Only once you convince it it’s actually a ghost and it can go wherever it wants but then you risk a haunting.

          Don’t be silly, basically you can get off the horsey and go around the obstacle, but the this doesn’t work for eg a pawn cause what are you going to do, split in two?

            While is this technically possible, it takes too much time (about 2-3 turns depending on the size and fitness of the horsey).

            That’s what they don’t tell you. “Horseys can jump, the Germans call them The Jumper.” Yes, but at what cost?
